LTE Location-Based Services Training:
LTE Location-Based Services Training Course hands-on (Online, Onsite, and Classroom Live!)
LTE Location-Based Services Training course covers Location Based Services (LBS) defined for 3GPP LTE. Learn how to use the location of the UE for commercial applications, public safety, emergency services (E911,) and infotainment such as map services or local advertising/information.
Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS) assists GPS-enabled LTE UE to improve the performance of their GPS receivers by providing it with assistance information providing the highest accuracy method and technique. AGPS method lacks reliability in indoors, dense urban, or high-rise buildings. In a hybrid method, AGPS can be supplemented with other available techniques such as Observed Time Difference of Arrival (OTDOA) or Enhanced Cell ID (ECID) described below.

Customize It:
- If you are familiar with some aspects of LTE Location-Based Services Training, we can omit or shorten their discussion.
- We can adjust the emphasis placed on the various topics or build the LTE Location-Based Services Training course around the mix of technologies of interest to you (including technologies other than those included in this outline).
- If your background is nontechnical, we can exclude the more technical topics, include the topics that may be of special interest to you (e.g., as a manager or policy-maker), and present the LTE Location Based Services Training course in a manner understandable to lay audiences.
